There are currently 53 million unpaid caregivers in the U.S.

Ty Lewis, who cares for her elderly mother with Alzheimer's while also raising her own children, is one of them — and she has built a community for those who feel left behind and emotionally and financially drained.

RCI’s Visiting Scholar, Dr. Toni Miles (Toni Miles, MD, PhD/Paradox) recently gave a keynote address on the intersection of livability and family caregivers during UT Austin The LBJ School's annual Livability for Longevity Symposium. Watch her talk here. youtu.be/tx4DCuaHK1I?si…

About 80 million Americans are “sandwich” caregivers — including lisaling.

She shares how she and her husband care for their children and an elderly parent at the same time and how finances play a role in caregiving decisions for families in similar situations.

Family caregivers are a vital part of both the U.S. and STEMM workforce. Kudos to National Academies for highlighting barriers impacting women in STEMM. Let’s continue to strengthen supports for our employee caregivers across all sectors. #WorkingWhileCaring nationalacademies.org/news/2024/04/t…

I had to start my remarks off at the The White House with a quote from Former First Lady, Rosalynn Carter, founder of the RCI Caregiving. My remarks were centered around highlighting the needs of the #GapGenerationCaregiver .

“Caregiving doesn’t work unless caregivers do.”

Gratitude to Secretary Xavier Becerra, NeeraTanden46, Jennifer Klein, Steve Benjamin for listening to & supporting care workers. Your commitment during the #CareMonthOfAction does not go unnoticed.

LOVE this quote shared during the The White House Care Convening by RCI Caregiving: “There are only four kinds of people in the world––those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers.” #CareCantWait

Anyone who’s cared for a sick or aging loved one knows that it can be a deeply meaningful experience—and also a daunting one.

Our country must do more to get caregivers like Ruth the support they need so they can be there for the people they love. m-gat.es/3PEHCwc
